Packaging
Shipping Mailers: For smaller orders, we send your orders out using either jiffy green mailers or eco alternatives depending on availability. For larger orders, we use cardboard boxes with paper tape. Where products may move around in the mailer, we pop in
packing peanuts which are made from renewable and biodegradable sources such as corn starch. They dissolve harmlessly in water and can be composted at home.
Marketing Material: Whenever possible, our marketing materials are crafted from post-consumer recycled products, embodying our commitment to sustainability. Not only do they showcase our message effectively, but they also promote environmental responsibility. Plus, they're fully recyclable, ensuring that even after their use, they continue their journey in the cycle of sustainability.
Aluminium Pots: Aluminium is endlessly recyclable, meaning these pots can be repurposed again and again without losing their lustre. You can either refill your pot or pop out the PET window lid for recycling.
Product Display Boxes: Our commitment to sustainability shines through in every aspect of our packaging, including our new product display boxes. Crafted from sturdy cardboard, these boxes not only showcase our products in style but also champion eco-friendliness. After serving their purpose, they can be easily recycled, giving them a new life and minimising waste. So, as you unveil your latest treasures nestled within these boxes, you can feel good knowing that you're making a choice that's kind to both your products and the planet.
Inks: The colours that adorn our packaging and products aren't just vibrant—they're also safe and environmentally conscious. We exclusively use non-toxic inks in all our printing processes. Ensuring that every hue that graces our materials is free from harmful chemicals. So, whether you're admiring the vibrant designs on our packaging or the intricate details of our products, you can trust that they're as safe for you as they are for the environment.
